Re: Here's a tricky question..but can anyone help me with it?

You will need a remote, being an express and that it takes IR remote you don't need a true roku remote, and cheap universal remote with roku listed will do. Go to the dollar store or target and a cheap universal remote.

Re: No Remote to Reconnect To Internet

Hi, 2qf89r016040 serial number on an old Roku box. My Internet cable is on the other side of the room from TV to connect the HDMI at the same time to the roku. I don't have a remote but have downloaded the roku remote app. Unable to 'Connect to a Device'. What now?

Nothing, you need a remote!! Once the roku is set to the same network and password as your cellphone then you can use the cellphone app. Can't be done initially without a remote.

@Baruoon 

Your first response in this thread is on page 2, your second on page 8? As told you before you will need a real remote initially before you can use the cellphone app.

Re: No Remote to Reconnect To Internet

@Writethisd0wn, you have to give more information.  What's the model number of your Roku?  What remote did you get?  Does the remote do anything?  Can't what????
